The journalist was arrested over the
weekend after detectives established that she gave false information to police
investigating the gruesome murder of 28-year old Monica Kimani, in her apartment
in Kilimani.

Maribe’s boyfriend, Joe Irungu alias Jowi,
has also been arrested and he’s being treated as the prime suspect in the
macabre murder of the lady whose throat was slit.

The journalist was arraigned in court on
Monday morning and will detained for a further 11 days to give detectives more
time to work on the case that has shocked the country.

Some of Maribe’s colleagues and friends
have also been summoned to shed more light on her character.

It was reported that among those summoned
is former Citizen TV news anchor, Terryanne Chebet, but she has dismissed those
reports but confirmed that she will gladly defend her friend if called upon.
